Are you eligible for a free school visit?

Thanks to the Edina Trust and UK Space Agency, we have funding to offer 60 schools a FREE space package (worth £1,000) for Year 5 and 6 pupils.

The Edina Trust is a small charity which funds activities to enhance the teaching and learning of primary school science. The UK Space Agency aims to boost UK prosperity, while improving our understanding of the Universe, and protecting our planet and outer space.

To be eligible for a funded visit, your school must be based in a rural location or have over 50% pupil premium. The attending pupils must be in Year 5 or 6.
